STRUCTURE OF EUKARYOTIC CELL

Prepared by : Shivang Patel

INTRODUCTION

A eukaryote is an organism whose cells contain complex structures enclosed within membranes.

Eukaryotic cells have an organized nucleus with a nuclear envelope. They have a "brain" for the cell. They have a discreet area where they keep their DNA. It is also said that they have a "true nucleus."

Although limited in size, eukaryotic cells can get very large. There are even some extreme examples called plasmodial slime molds that can be a meter wide.

Eukaryotic cells have organelles and organized DNA so, they are able to create parts. One example is the flagellum (a tail-like structure to help it move).

STRUCTURE 1. External Structures :

• Flagella • Cilia• Glaycocalyx• Cell – Wall• Cytoplasmic Membrane

2. Internal Structure :• Nucleus Control Center• Endoplasmic Reticulum: A Passageway into the Cell:• Golgi Apparatus: A Packaging and Distribution Machine:• Lysosymes• Vacuoles• Mitochondria: Energy Generators of the Cell:• Chloroplasts: Photosynthesis Machines:• Ribosome: Protein Synthesizers:• Cytoskeleton

SUMMARY

EUKARYOTES: They are the cells that have helped organisms advance to new levels

of specialization beyond imagination. You wouldn't be here if eukaryotic cells did not exist.
